Core Team leader in hierarchy ladder

Where does core team fit in management ladder. Is it next to CEO?
The way some people brag about in Longmont..they say as if they r next in-line to be CEO
Can someone clarify?

Core-Team Leaders are equivalent of Director or Senior Director and usually report to a VP (though at times there has been another layer between VP and CTL). A top-paid Sr. CTL could push $400K in a good year between salary (~$250K), bonus (~$60-70K) and stock grant ($60-70K). Most are paid less.

Looks like Seagate core team leaders salaries are more than Google/Meta. No wonder some ppl call Longmont FAANG in comments

@1rvz 500k? As with all positions it depends on the individual. Seagate is incredibly top heavy and it gets worse with every lay-off. Seagate has a big problem with keeping high level management in place even after the workers are gone. Personally I have lost the energy to care about Seagate’s problems these days. Hopefully things will turn around time will tell the tale

The role is important for the company. It's the chief commander role of a product, and there aren't many products in Seagate at the moment. Whether or not the person is a good fit for the position is another story. A good chief usually won't brag about how important his position is.

This company is desperately short of insanely paid Office Jockeys that make it to work 2 out of 5 days.

We see former Core Team Leads step up to VP positions.

So basically a person who has survived many layoff, by art of being in good books.

It depends on his/her capability. Someone was close to CEO and some others were just tech leader or PM.

It's a pretty big deal to be one. Yes, they do talk to the CEO directly.
